Day 10: Daily Routine (31 Day Blog Challenge)

After yesterdays flop of a post, I think I can handle this one. My daily routine is very simple. I'm not an over complicated person and my life is fairly ordinary. I think I have to much time on my hands some days and others I feel like there is not enough time.

I get up at 7:00 am, put on a pot of coffee and get the kids out of bed. Between then and 8:00, it's getting them fed and ready to go out to catch the bus. At 8, I put them on the bus and head back home to have a cup of coffee. Trust me, you don't want to know me without that cup or two of coffee in the morning. I really don't think it's the caffeine. I think it's the ritual of it that makes me feel like a sane person. I will eat some breakfast and sit down to fire up the laptop. Lately, I've been doing my blog posts then and it's worked out well. I will check sites and emails till I'm done with the coffee.

I would link this piece of art to the artist, but I can't find them anywhere.

Between the time of 9 am and 11 am, I'm cleaning and then taking a walk if it's a nice day. After that it's lunchtime. I will work in photoshop part of my afternoon till the kids get off the bus at 3 pm. And now my day suddenly seems mundane. LOL

Once my kids are home, it's homework time. The rest of the evening consists of cooking dinner and bath time. We are pretty laid back and I always get my kids ready for bed starting at 7 pm cause well, they have a bad habit of getting up and down out of bed. It literally takes my kids an hour to settle down. I put them in bed around 7:30pm and it's lights out at 8 pm. I've always kept this bedtime for them and I'm so thankful I have.

I tend to stay up for a few more hours either playing a video game or watching some t.v. I love my quiet time and I need it every evening to relax.
